Details
This beautiful antique late Victorian silver floral spray brooch is designed as a cascading en bouquet motif, gracefully tied with a ribbon bow. An array of dazzling, hand-cut, foil-backed paste stones capture the fiery brilliance of old-cut diamonds, while exquisite milgrain detailing and multi-tiered openwork lend depth and sculptural elegance to the shimmering silver setting.
Steeped in 19th-century romance, this poetic design is rich in symbolism. The blossoming flowers represent flourishing love and grace, while the delicately tied ribbon embodies an eternal, unbreakable bond - a timeless love knot to be treasured through generations.
In wonderful antique condition, with radiant, lively stones, the brooch is fitted with a new pin and rollover safety clasp for secure, worry-free wear. A truly romantic statement piece, it is accompanied by a navy leather presentation box, featuring a blue velvet interior, signed by Fattorini & Sons Ltd, of Birmingham.
